Those are the words of International Association of Machinists union boss Tom Buffenbarger who spoke before Hillary in Youngstown. Pretty vicious attack on Obama. I wonder how he plans to make nice when Obama is the nominee?

“Will we rely on the Harvard Law Review editor, the silver-tongued orator from Kansas, Hawaii and Illinois, the man in love with the microphone?
“Nooo!” the crowd roard
Or will go with a proven fighter, a woman who was hitt wqith the lowest, the cruelest, the meanest attacks the right wing conspiracy could deliver.

I have been moved by Barack Obama’s words: hope change, yes we can How can you not be moved by such wonderful uplifting platitudes, so artfully delivered.? Wath the junion senator from Illinois carefully as he delivers his best lines, he cocks his head back, lifts his nove up and turns his ear so he can hear the roar of his adoring crowd.
It is a trained thespian’s move. But unlike some, we in the machinists union have seen this act before.
All; he proved is that like Janus, the two-faced Roman god of ancient times, he could act like a friend to the workin’ man even as he danced to the tune dictated by billionaires.

“I’ve got news for all the Lactaid-drinking, Prius-driving, Birkenstock-wearing, trust-fund babies crowding in to hear him speak. This guy won’t last a round against the Republican attack machine. He’s a poet, not a fighter.”

That last part is just laughable! Obama will prove ready to face any adversary if he can survive Hillary Clinton and her vicious attack machine.
BTW, a little class warfare to go along with the racial and gender wars the Democrats are engaged in.
